HOW IT WORKS

THE FULL STACK

The LAUNCH Incubator selects 6-8 startups for each of the three yearly sessions: Summer, Fall and Winter. Startup founders meet every Thursday, a notable speaker & Silicon Valley investors. After 12 weeks of intense product development our startups launch at one of our events.

TESTIMONIALS

FROM OUR ALUMNI

Ryan Sheffer - Momunt

Not only did it give us the opportunity to pitch directly to each of the speakers that came, but it also meant that all of the companies in the incubator were simultaneously competitive and helpful with each other. It pushed everyone to make their products better and better.

Jacqui Boland - Red Tricycle

Small class size was amazing and a huge benefit. So much direct weekly feedback from Jason, Launch team, peers and guest speakers. Having not just an opportunity to launch on stage at the Launch conference, but having weeks of pitch practice leading up to it was priceless.

Simon Burns - Keza

Jason is a master storyteller, he can take any startup and tell their story in a way that makes you want to jump to your feet and cheer! I've seen him take the story of B2B startup with an esoteric model and a pitch in a dire state of incomprehensibility, into a story of a startup that is redefining the ads landscape forever.

Julia Lera - Tidy Marketer

This is a 12-week program where every week you'll pitch in front of a panel of 3-5 top-name investors. They'll give you candid feedback and your skin will grow thicker and thicker. If I could go back in time and make this decision again, I'd do it one more time in a heartbeat.

Elizabeth Russel - Mindset

LAUNCH incubator turns wildly passionate and hard working founders into extremely fundable founders. I don't know YC well but I would imagine the larger class side may dilute access to the human resources and individual attention that we found so valuable in the incubator.

How to get in

Just what are we looking for?

The LAUNCH team selects founders who are executing at an extremely high level in markets that are important. We look for world-class product design, traction, revenue, and technical execution -- said simply, people with skills and products that people love.We seek individuals who are deeply passionate and who possess a tremendous work ethic.

perfect Timing

What stage should my startup be in?

All of the founders we accept have a solid product in market. At least half of the startups we accept have significant traction and revenue. We do not invest in business plans, decks, or ideas -- ever. Occasionally we will accept a wildcard who has an MVP but little or no traction.
